Te’o admits he lied 'briefly': ‘What would you do?’

Claims surfaced January 16 that Manti Te'o's inspiring relationship with Lennay Kekua was a hoax

Many questions remain regarding Te'o's knowledge of the situation

Notre Dame football star Manti Te'o suddenly found himself back in the spotlight after claims surfaced January 16 that the inspiring relationship he had with a girl who supposedly died of leukemia on September 12 was actually a hoax.

Once details started to emerged, it was clear that the story was so complex, you'd need a bloodhound's nose to properly sniff out answers to all the questions. Why did Te'o continue to reference the girlfriend after he supposedly knew she was fake? Who ran the girlfriend's Twitter account? Is my online boyfriend fake, too?
